Hitler is reported to have said. "who remembers the Armenians?" This day is set aside to remind us that those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. As we speak. in Yugoslavia. Serbian President Slobodan Milosevic is engaged in gross violations of the human rights of ethnic Albanians in Kosovo. The images splashed across our television screens and newspapers of ethnic cleansing. forced deportations. and random executions there are horrors for which the Armenian genocide was a tragic precedent. Today. we honor the memory of the victims of the Armenian genocide. and vow once more that genocide will not go unnoticed and unmourned. We gather today to reaffirm our unwavering commitment to fight all crimes against humanity.
